42AHS054 Dual Shaft Six Wires 2 Phase Hybrid Stepper Motor
1. Products Overview
Step motor is an executive agency that converts electrical pulses
into corner displacement. You can control the angle displacement by
controlling the number of pulses to achieve the purpose of accurate
positioning. At the same time, you can control the speed and
acceleration of the motor rotation by controlling the pulse
frequency to achieve the purpose of the speed regulation.
The hybrid step motor is currently the most widely used step motor,
and everyone is familiar with the stepper motor. Here, we briefly
introduce how to choose the right step motor for our applications.
How to choose the right step motor for our applications?
The choice of stepping motor torque
The torque of the stepping motor is similar to the "power" of
traditional motors. Of course, there is an essential difference.
The physical structure of the stepping motor is completely
different from AC and DC motors and the output power can be
variable.
Generally, we select the motor size according to the torque need in
operation. For example, if the torque needed is less than 0.8N.M,
frame size 20/28/35/39/42mm stepper motors are suitable. If the
required torque is about 1N.M, select 57mm motor. When the required
torque is several N.M or even more, usually selected stepping
motors with frame size 86/110/130mm or bigger.
The stepping motor speed selection
Special consideration should be taken for the speed of the target
stepper motor. Because the output torque of the motor is inversely
proportional to the speed. That is to say, when the stepper motor
speed is low (500-600 rpm or lower speed per minute), its output
torque is larger. When the motor speed is increasing, the motor
toque will be decreasing and especially when with the speed of
1000rpm and above.
Sometimes when high-speed motors are needed, the coil resistance,
inductance and other indicators of the stepped motor must be
considered carefully. Choose a motor with a slightly less
inductance is better, as the output torque is normally higher.
However, if want low speed and big torque, a stepper motor with
inductance no less than 10mH is better.
Selection of no-load-starting frequency
This is a more important indicator for buying motors. If it is
required to start and stop frequently within a short time, and the
speed is about 1000 rpm (or higher), it is usually necessary to
"accelerated startup", i.e need a motor with high no-load-starting
frequency.
Phase selection
Regarding to the choice of the number of step motor phases, many
customers do not pay enough attention. In fact, the performance of
stepper motors with different phases are different. The more
phases, the smaller the steps can be done, and the vibration at
work is smaller. In most occasions, two-phase motors are enough.
However, if higher performances needed, especially for precision or
smoothness, 3-phase or 5-phase can be better.
Select the protection level
There are special step motors, such as water-proof and oil-proof,
dust-proof for some special occasions. For example, underwater
robots, or fountain etc. need waterproof motors.

Although the stepper motor and its control technology are currently
very mature, if not used properly, there may still be a situation
of step loss, i.e. position error. Next, we will analyze the common causes and solutions of position errors.
The reasons for the position error of stepper motors
Large load inertia
When the inertia of the load driven by the stepper motor is large,
its inertia will generate inertia force, causing the current
waveform output by the stepper motor controller to be inconsistent
with the actual required current waveform, resulting in inaccurate
position of the stepper motor.
The stepper motor driver is not set correctly
Incorrect settings of the stepper motor driver, such as fine
fraction, step angle, and other parameter settings, can also lead
to an increase in the position error of the stepper motor.
The pulse signal output by the stepper motor controller is unstable
When the pulse signal output by the stepper motor controller is
unstable, it can lead to inaccurate position of the stepper motor.
This situation is more common when using long-distance transmission
of control signals.
The stepper motor is damaged
The rotor or stator of the stepper motor may be damaged, or the
bearings may be damaged, which can lead to positional errors in the
stepper motor.
Methods to solve the position error of stepper motors
Control load inertia
The position error of the stepper motor can be reduced by reducing
the load inertia. For example, when driving a stepper motor with
inertia loads, methods such as installing shock absorbers and
changing the load inertia mode can be used to reduce the load
inertia.
Set the driver parameters correctly
Correctly set the subdivision and step angle parameters of the
stepper motor driver to ensure the position accuracy.
Stable output pulse signal
High precision pulse generators or adjustable filters can be used
to stabilize the output pulse signal and reduce the position error
of stepper motors.
Replace damaged stepper motor components
When the stepper motor is damaged, it is necessary to replace the
corresponding components in order to restore the normal operation
of the stepper motor.

feed and tool retraction, thereby achieving precision and speed in
machining workpieces. It can achieve different processing effects,
high speed, and high efficiency.

The application of stepper motors in automation equipment is also
very extensive. In automation equipment, stepper motors are used to
control the position and speed of various moving components,
thereby achieving automation control of the equipment. It can
achieve different control effects, such as high speed and high

Optical equipment
In optical equipment, stepper motors are widely used in modulators,
fine-tuning, and other aspects. Because the action of stepper

require high-precision and stable positioning machinery, and
stepper motors are perfect for such tasks.
In summary, stepper motors can be widely used in various fields due
to their characteristics of quantitative motion and fixed stepper
